War is a clash of wills where the 2, or more parties attempt to dominate the other. Unless you haven't noticed God does not force folks to do anything. In this case the will of sodom is nothing but evil, driven by evil intent. The will of the opposition is that he cease and desist, nothing more, nothing less. Unless one takes the side of those who would bow to the will of sodom and his sodomite forces, the finger points to the sodomites as the ones responsible for the clash.
